DU This! Go vote for the Chicks!!
Will Texas forgive the Dixie Chicks? Husband-and-wife radio personalities Gene and Julie Gates ask that very question of listeners today during their show from 5 to 10 a.m. on KVIL-FM (103.7). At stake is whether the station should play the Chicks' new single, "Not Ready to Make Nice." Listeners can hear the song, offer comments and vote on www.1037litefm.com. Gene and Julie will announce the results at 8 a.m. Thursday.

2. You need to link the poll more directly. I just spent a few minutes at
the site and could not find what you are talking about.

3. I wanted to...
But I saw "Lite Rock", "Mother/Son songs" and "An evening with Michael Bolton" and had a spasm.

Sorry.
:(

4. couldn't find the poll.
I do like the Dixie Chicks "Travelin' Soldier"
and when I first heard it I couldn't believe that was what all the fuss was about.

5. The fuss wasn't over that.
It was over their exercising their right to free speech. You know, that freedom that the soldiers fight for, but that you're not supposed to actually use.

12. Voting yes means that they've done something for which they need...
forgiveness.

Voting no means that they shouldn't be forgiven.

I can't find the poll, and I'd like to hear the song. I think they should play the song, but "Texas" has no reason to forgive the Chicks, because they didn't do anything wrong.

I can't find the poll.
